2 GETTING STARTED Following these few simple steps will ensure a successful installation each time. Read all instructions, before starting installation. 1. Inspect the boxes for damage and check the parts against the supplied parts list. Note: Report damaged parts or shortages immediately to prevent job slowdown /stoppage to place of purchase. CONTENTS Street Wrap Bracket Layout...1 Installing Street Wrap into Brackets...2 Custom Cut to Fit End of Runs & Corners...3 Street Wrap on an Incline...4 Frame Border Installation...5 Connecting Power Supplies...6 Testing Each Section Refer to attached provided print and confirm job measurements. 3. Layout your job on paper, making note of Power Supply placement. Power Supplies can be placed at the end of runs or side by side to power allowable linear footage in each direction. Note: If job measurements do not correspond to provided drawing, call Principal LED immediately at Remember: No more than 90 modules per 60W Power Supply. COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION & REQUIRED TOOLS MATERIALS Housing PVC, UC and impact resistant Lens (LED Tube) Polypropylene, UV and impact resistant Clip Steel Profile Dimensions w/ Clips Street Wrap 1.38 X 1.69 STREET WRAP 1.38" Rain Shield LEDs Tube 1.69" LED SPECIFICATIONS RED GREEN Same for Blue, RGB and White.

3 STREET WRAP MOUNTING BRACKET LAYOUT " SEC. 1 EQ. EQ. SHARED BRACKET SHARED BRACKET 3" SHARED BRACKET END OF RUN 1. Use a chalk line, gauge, laser level, or other means to be certain the run is straight, marking locations for brackets. 2. Border/perimeter of sign cabinets should always have orientation of Street Fighter Wrap housing raised lip outboard on vertical or diagonal. Orient brackets so that the drain holes will be on the bottom side of the horizontal runs. 3. Install mounting brackets, three per 106.5" section including shared brackets. Use pre-drilled wire hole mounting brackets at transformer locations Rain Shield Lens LEDs Note: This is correct bracket orientation. Note: Track sections share a bracket at the ends to keep ends together and straight. There must be a space left between plastic track sections (NOT LEDs) of 3/16. NOTE: MAXIMUM 3 UNITS PER 6OW POWER SUPPLY 120 Vac 60W Power Supply TIP Install end bracket after housing has been installed into previous brackets by sliding over end to ensure bracket is centered between sections. Place mounting brackets 3 on center from corners

4 INSTALLING STREET WRAP INTO MOUNTING BRACKETS SEC Connect wires from one section to another using red butt splice wire connectors. No more than 45 modules in a series. Insert top, Bracket Latch Raised Portion Butt Splice Wire Connector 2. Before hanging sections that have the power cable placed between them, cut a small notch with dikes or other tool in the back of both housing sections to allow room for cable. Roll into bottom point of track housing WIRE HOLE BRACKET NOTCH Fascia Screw Figure Lay the section being added on the mounting brackets. After making wire connections tuck the wires and connectors BEHIND LED modules. Caulk notch. DO NOT HIT LENS TO INSTALL TRACK! This will permanently damage the lens. Insert the top edge into the top bracket latch. Push the track housing in and roll top track housing into mounting bracket bottom point. See Figure 1. Bring Street Wrap sections close together by pushing sections together until LED modules come together, but leave a 3/16" approximate expansion gap between plastic track sections. Leave no gaps in the LEDs. Install an End Cap at the beginning and end of runs with silicone. Silicone on top side only, so water will drain out. Finish by sliding a Coupling Rain Shield under the mounting bracket latch, over both sections. Use a small amount of silicone on one side of rain shield to hold on. Use a small screw driver to gently pry up the Bracket Latch to insert Rain Shield under latch making certain it is firmly attached. Caulk Under Rain Shield Caulk Top & Corners End Caps 3/16 Approx. expansion gap between plastic track sections NOT LEDs. Coupling Rain Shield Rain Shield 2

5 CUSTOM CUT TO FIT END OF RUNS & CORNERS SEC. 3 END OF A RUN 1. Remove LEDs before cutting track by sliding one or two modules out. 2. Measure, mark and cut Street Wrap to required length. Use a fine blade. 3. Add drain holes in the center, of the cut piece of track, before reinstalling the LED. 4. Reinstall modules to desired length. HORIZONTAL CORNERS OUTSIDE CORNERS End Cap with hole drilled for cable attach with adhesive INSIDE CORNERS 1/4" Gap for expansion Track Bracket Low Voltage Cable Screw These corners are square cut and overlap slightly to give a continuous look at a distance and allow for thermal expansion. Track Bracket 1/4" Gap for expansion End Cap with hole drilled for cable attach with adhesive Low Voltage Cable Screw VERY IMPORTANT Insulate or remove unused wires at the end of run to prevent shorting. Do not connect wires together or to next circuit. CORNER CONNECTIONS HINT: THREAD END CAPS ONTO PLTC CABLE FBEFORE WIRE CONNECTIONS BACK TO BACK PLTC: Power Limited Tray Cable PLTC CABLE 3

6 MOUNTING STREET WRAP ON AN INCLINE SEC. 4 When mounting Street Wrap on an incline or vertically, two things must be prevented. First the Street Wrap must be kept from sliding down, while still allowing for expansion/contraction with temperature changes. Second, water must be sealed out since it will run down the top of the Street Wrap. Caulk above (or crimp) ONE bracket towards the middle of each of the rest of the Street Wrap to prevent it from sliding while still allowing it to expand and contract. Seal the rain shield to the upper Street Wrap to keep water from penetrating. Do NOT seal the rain shield to the lower Street Wrap since the Street Wrap will expand/contract. Coupling Rain Shield Drill 2 holes in the end cap to allow water to escape. 4

8 CONNECTING TRANSFORMERS SEC. 6 Note: Stop and make sure the supplied power supply is 277VAC rated with any primary voltage supply greater than Attach Qwik Boxes to available support member. Connect Black and White wires from 2. Attach power supplies inside of Qwik Boxes. to120vac 3. Install strain relief for low voltage wire. 4. Drill 1/2 hole through the fascia. A conduit fitting can be installed so that conduit can be used. 5. Insert low voltage wire into the hole and connect to LED. Fill hole with silicone sealant. Note: Three Street Wrap Border per 60W Power Supply. Side by side mounting location show below can reduce primary and secondary wiring labor time. Fascia DO NOT CONNECT 120 VOLTS TO LEDs. LEDs ARE 12VDC ONLY! TO LEDS 12VDC Low Voltage Connect and Low Voltage wires from Transformers to LEDs Power Cable Strain Relief Fitting Primary 120VAC (IN) Secondary 12VDC LowVoltage (OUT) VERY IMPORTANT: KEEP LOW VOLTAGE CIRCUITS ELECTRICALLY SEPARATE, DO NOT CONNECT TRANSFORMERS OR LEDs FROM DIFFERENT STREET WRAPS TOGETHER OR CONNECT MORE THAN THREE STREET WRAPS TO A 60W POWER SUPPLY! 6

9 TESTING EACH SECTION SEC. 7 IMPORTANT: DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP. ALWAYS CHECK ALL LED LIGHTS BEFORE CONTINUING. 1. Using the installed trasformers, supply power to the LED light chains by connecting a temporary 120V connection to the black and white wires on the transformer to power the LED lights. REMEMBER: BLACK AND WHITE WIRES ARE FOR 120V POWER IN, RED AND BLACK ARE FOR LOW-VOLTAGE POWER OUT. 2. Check to see if all LEDs are lit and working correctly. 3. If a module or section does not light up, is damaged, etc. disconnect power and check connections or replace a module by splicing in another. DO NOT APPLY 120V TO THE RED OR BLACK WIRES OR DIRECTLY TO THE LED MODULES. 7
